Seriously? Seriously!

The pass three weeks or since the start of a new trimester... everything is so wrong... so sueh (unlucky)... well, the first week was a 'blast'... I woke up one day from my afternoon nap and sprained the joint of my left hand and my shoulder... but its not that pain and movement is fine... and it healed the day after... then on weekend... my sister and brother both came back... my sister came home to take all the cookies that her friends ordered... that's why that week have been extremely busy making cookies day and night... and after they went back on Sunday... my computer started to go haywire... one of my hard disk, I have two, started to make problems... and then it cant be detected... it seems like crashing... freak...

On the second week... still making cookies but lesser dy... and just two weeks of studying... we got two assignments dy... one is technical communication which is to pass up a proposal about our research... and the due date is tomorrow... another is control theory which is to pass up somewhere in March if not mistaken... and we have to use a program call scilab to do it... lastly, my hard disk is still the same... just haven confirm that whether it's crash or not... in my heart, I've a bad feeling dy... but just keep on thinking that it's fine...

On the third week, which is this week... I help my mom to make 'kuih rose'... i was kinda sleepy but my mom insist on me helping her... after an hour or so, my head was getting heavier and heavier each second... and guess what? instead of flipping the 'kuih'... my hand slip and flip an amount of hot oil out of the wok and onto my leg... quickly my mom ask me to put some medicine on it... and now, I have some scar or 'spot' on my left leg... that is just great... beside that, I woke up Tuesday morning with my left hand joint pain again... this time it is worse... I can't bend my hand to the back and to the front cause it will hurt... but it get better in the evening... and on Wednesdays or yesterday, it doesn't quite hurt anymore... and today it's all good...

Yesterday, after class at 2pm, I was suppose to help a friend to take his result slip cause he's in cyber... but it will only open at 2.30pm... freak... so i have to spend half an hour waiting... that's fine... after that I went in to take the slip... but the fellow can't find it... he say that it has been sent to cyber dy... so I called my friend telling him that... after that went to L house to check on my hard disk... and it's already 3pm dy... freak, wasted an hour doing nothing... so after L try and try... it's finally confirm that my hard disk had crashed... that is another great news... all my stuff in there is gone; my pictures, my document, my files, my animes, my movies, all gone... great huh...

Other then all the stuff happening... been busy doing the proposal too... and was delayed a bit due to some misunderstanding of what the lecturer really wants us to do... but we manage it today... all that is to do is just to print and pass up... thats not my job... so I can finally rest after all the 'great' stuff happened... but my parents want me to help them kemas the house... freak... I was so lazy and tired.... but i still help them a bit... erm... a bit as in very little... hehehe... haih~ at least I still help right...

Beside all of the busy stuff... I still have my own time at night... and I spend it watching Grey's Anatomy... finish two seasons (38 episodes) in two weeks... the series is like Scrubs only that it runs for 40+ minutes while Scrub run for 20+ minutes... and the major difference between them is that one is more to comedy and the other is more serious like... I like both of them... hehe... cause it's mostly about life and how to deal with problems etc... and when you watch it... you'll have the feeling that it's just like what is happening around you...

Anyway, as you can see... my luck has been very bad for this three weeks... and it's getting worse and worse each week when Chinese new year is getting closer and closer... what does that mean? does it mean that I will have bad luck for the rest of the year... or is it the other way around... I hope that it's the other way around... see you all after the holidays...

It's a long post...
what do you expect...
it's the summary of 3 weeks...
by the way...
Happy Chinese New Year...
